Tuesday, April 19

1. Surprise, surprise. Our little world that week revolved around hunting down the very best food we could find. We found out we are excellent hunters.

2. That ... and I found out I never knew half the stuff you're supposed to know when it comes to being sophisticated at fancy restaurants. Like, to stop wiping the table with my steamed towel -- it's for my hands.

3. They really do ask you to cut off your arm and hand it to them at the end of a taxi ride. Oh yes. Your arm and a large tip.
4. The replica was not nearly as impressive after seeing the real thing. But bless its heart, the poor thing sure tried.

5. Breakfast in bed might be the best thing that's ever happened to me. I would also like to call attention to my dark eyeballs here. Somebody told me that if you left your eye makeup on at night after cleaning your face, you'd wake up looking like a rockstar.
I'd say zombie is slightly more accurate.

6. Couples hot stone massages are .... *slow drool*
7. Another surprise. No one knows how to work our camera. - so this is the only picture we got of us together the whole time.

Oh I miss Vegas! We used to live an hour and a half away...and obviously didn't take enough advantage of that!Haha your hubs is so cute! Mine pulls that face all the time, THEN comments making sure EVERYONE knows he's trying to pull Blue Steel haha! (is Blue Steel even right? I don't love Zoolander so I didn't pay much attention ha)

LOL! You crack me up. Is that his "blue steel" look? :-D Sure looks that way!

Oh and I totally know what you mean... I never knew I was that clumsy at a dinner table until I was at the mother of all fancy restaurants. Twice. Dinner: So breathtaking. My demeanor: Made me want to go to charm school! Ugh.

That last shot and caption cracked me up. Looks like you had a great time! Weirdly, I got the best picture from my London trip when I let a waitress take a picture of my brother and me. She must have been a fancy photographer in her spare time because that picture rocked!

Sydney it looked like you guys had such a blast! Isn't it nice just to get away and forget about school and work and all the craziness? When I went to Vegas for the first time I was puzzled why the waitresses in the casinos kept asking me if I wanted "diet pills" OH! They're saying "cocktails" hahahaha I was like "what kind of place is this???"

looks like a fun time! i loved vegas! and btw- my hubs and i have the same issue with our camera. it's takes so much time to explain to someone that you simply look through the hole, make sure we're in there, and then press the button! so hard, no? no.

Sydney, #7 made me smile. I shoot with an old pentaxk1000 - and it's crazy - on vacation I don't have a single picture with me in it! what did people do before point and shoot? Sounds like your vacation was lovely.

I'm glad you had fun in Vegas. We went there this weekend and had an entirely different experience. Ours was more backpacking through Vegas, slight homelessness and scaling freeway walls. I must agree on the taxi fares! One way to our hotel was $30! NUTS!

I love all of these pictures! And I love how 7/10 were food related haha.. a girl after my own heart! And I hate not having anyone to take our pictures when we're on vacation..thats the only downside :(

Haha! I always get frustrated when we have people take our picture, they're always blurry! You look amazing, by the way! Are you growing your bangs out? I'd love to see a tutorial for the way you have your hair in these pictures. I love it and I'm sure I'm not the only one! Glad you had so much fun!

Adorable!! Looks like you had a great trip - minus the pepper poisoning. What a pain. I LOVE breakfast in bed - so amazing and is WAY better than sitting at a table. Cute photo of you two, even though it was the only one hehe. You are so beautiful! Glad to see you're back! xo

Isn't Vegas crazy? The first time we took a taxi ride there was DEFINITELY our last. The short ride was so expensive. Plus, due to traffic, we could have walked to our destination and arrived in a more timely manner than that cab! The Vegas Eiffel Tower sure is a trooper. I like to call it "Mini Me." Any ways. I hope you had fun!

yum yum yum. looks so good. if you get a second please stop by to see multiple post a day on all the latest celebrity fashion news and check out pictures from the fall/winter preview I attended yesterday in Beverly Hills. xoxo. Would love your support. xoxo

Breakfast in bed!!! I love hotels for that reason alone. So frustrating about the camera- I always hate not getting decent pics of me and my young man. even if we can find someone to take a picture for us, it is normally too awkward to be nice! I hope you've had a great time and don't get the post-holiday bluesxxx

Sooo I'm totally late to the comment game on this one, but I have to ask...so I hope you scroll down this far to read this quest-chee-ano. What restaurants did you eat at in Vegas?! I'm going in a few weeks and the club scene there is not my thing but BOMB meals are. So let me know what you recommend please and thanks!

And I think the Zoolander pose is like engrained in every man's brain. My boyfriend does this often. Far. To. Often. Sheesh. xo pretty lady!

LOVE that pic of the two of you in the mirror. I always set my camera up and tell the people to stand right where I am standing and don't tough anything else but the shutter button and it seems to work out for me;)

i went there in october for my honeymoon and hunted food also. tell me you had the burger at bradley ogden. the best burger of my life. still dreaming about it and the brown sugar banana pancake at hash house a go go! glad you had fun.

Weird coincidence... I just got back from Vegas today (I'm catching up on all my favourite blogs right now). I see you liked Joe's too. It was the only restaurant there that I really liked; I think you guys were much better at finding good food than I was. The Bellagio fountains were one of my favourite parts of the trip... in a word, magical.
